  • Authorities of Panama and Greenland have repeatedly said they won't hand over any territory to Trump, with Panama's president declaring that the canal "is going to stay in our hands forever," and Denmark's prime minister insisting "Greenland is not for sale."

Trump suggested that the U.S. should consider "land grabs" for strategic locations like the Panama Canal and Greenland, emphasizing the importance of these territories for national security and economic interests.
